about
lyrics
Before You gave us life and breath
You numbered all our days
You set Your gracious love on us
And chose us to be saved
This fleeting life is passing by
With all its joys and pain
But we believe to live is Christ
And death is gain
Chorus
To live is Christ, to die is gain
In every age this truth remains
We will not fear, we’re unashamed
To live is Christ, to die is gain
Verse 2
And though we grieve for those we love
Who fall asleep in Christ
We know they’ll see the Savior’s face
And gaze into His eyes
So now we grieve, yet we don’t grieve
As those who have no hope
For just as Jesus rose again
He’ll raise His own
Verse 3
And now we’re longing for the day
We’ll see the Lamb once slain
Who saved a countless multitude
To glorify His name
We’re yearning for the wedding feast
Of Jesus and His bride
His nail-scarred hands will finally
Bring us to His side

I am liking what I have heard! We are looking for solid gospel songs for our church in Phoenix,AZ. I sing part time with the worship team. Our pastor and friend has asked me to find more anointed songs than what we have been singing. Thank you for your album! God bless you! Leah Wood

Joy Beyond The Sorrow: Indelible Grace VI
by Indelible Grace Musicsupported by 25 fans who also own “Risen”
Indelible Grace does hymn revival so well I'm almost annoyed I don't see the trend making its way to Australia yet. This record keeps me hoping.
